Buying a keg system for you home, like those we sell at Tap That Brewery and Keghouse, can be a game-changer for entertainers and their families & friends. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you convince your partner that this is a worthwhile investment.

Step 1: Showcase the Advantages

Economic Savings

• Cost Per Pint: The cost per pint of beer significantly decreases when buying in bulk compared to retail prices. As of January 2024, according to the Brewer’s Association of Australia, the average pint at the pub now costs $15. In contrast, purchasing 20-litre kegs of pub-quality beer from our Burleigh Heads Brewery brings the cost down to around $3 per pint.
  
• Reduced Waste: Using a keg system reduces packaging waste, which is both eco-friendly and cost-effective. This means no more overflowing boxes full of empties down the side of the house.

Convenience

• Always On Tap: No need for last-minute runs to the bottle shop —your beer is always available for those friends or in-laws that drop in unannounced.
  
• Entertaining at Home: Perfect for hosting parties or gatherings, making you the go-to place among friends and family. Say ‘goodbye’ to the stress and frustration of entertaining kids in a restaurant and ‘hello’ to catching up on your terms with friends in the comfort of home.

Freshness and Quality

• Brewery-Fresh Taste: Kegged beer stays fresher longer, maintaining its quality and taste better than bottled or canned beer. [Plus, our beer is unpasteurised and unfiltered, meaning it contains none of the nasties found in mass-produced beer.] FACT CHECK.
  

Step 2: Tackle Common Concerns

Initial Cost

• Investment Justification: Break down the initial cost and compare it to long-term savings.
  
• Payment Options: Check out our payment options through Afterpay and Zip Pay and memberships for a plan that will work best for your situation.

Space and Installation

• Systems Sizes: We carry a range of home keg systems from a 1 up to an 6 tap system. If space is a concern, our most compact home keg system model is the size of a bar fridge that is suitable for indoor or outdoor (covered) use.
  
• Installation: Our keg systems are easy to set up with step-by-step online instructions—no professional skills required! You might just need an extra pair of hands to help.
  

Step 3: Prioritise Practicality

Real-Life Scenarios

• Weekend BBQs: Imagine hosting a weekend BBQ where your guests can enjoy freshly poured pints from your keg system. Instead of dealing with cans and bottles, everyone can savor the perfectly chilled, tap-fresh beer, turning a simple BBQ into a memorable event.
  
• Relaxation Time: Picture winding down after a long day together, sharing a perfect pint poured at home while the kids play happily at home.
